Insights

Nayax's successful debt offering represents a significant capital raise of approximately $137.5 million gross proceeds ($134.7 million net), demonstrating strong investor demand with the offering being nearly 2x oversubscribed. The company secured favorable terms with a 5.9% fixed interest rate on the notes maturing in 2030, with principal repayments structured to defer the bulk of repayment (80% of principal) to 2029-2030, creating substantial financial flexibility in the near term.

The warrant component is particularly noteworthy, priced at a 37% premium to current share price, indicating investor confidence in Nayax's growth trajectory. The company's intended use of proceeds for debt repayment and potential acquisitions suggests a balanced approach between strengthening the balance sheet and pursuing strategic growth opportunities.

The financial covenants attached to this offering provide important guardrails - Nayax must maintain equity above $80 million and an equity-to-assets ratio of at least 21%, with even stricter requirements ($120 million equity and 29% equity-to-assets ratio) before dividends or share repurchases. These terms represent a sensible framework that protects debt holders while allowing operational flexibility. The successful raise strengthens Nayax's financial position while providing capital for strategic initiatives that could accelerate growth.
